HOPKINSON HOUSE

Specialist rehabilitation accommodation in Pimlico

This project for Look Ahead Housing and Care in Pimlico provided 27 self-contained units within this sheltered mental health facility, along with common facilities and an intensively landscaped courtyard garden for residents. PJMA carefully planned the layout of the residential units within the existing building, resulting in 7 more units than required in our original brief.  Colourful interior finishes within the building were intended to enliven and contrast with the sober exterior of this existing Edwardian building.

As Look Ahead Housing and Care had recently purchased the freehold of the building, we were also instructed to include works to maintain and repair the building’s facades and roof within the limited budget, together with creation of a dedicated waste storage facility at street level.
